July 20, 20214 yr I really want to like MSFS but after every update I seem to have more issues, yes I empty my Community folder, if I fly out of Lake Havasu I get half the desert showing correctly and then half this ugly light fake green color. In addition, I cant seem to get live weather to work or ever display the weather properly here in the US, we are having Thunderstorms which happens maybe 10 times a year and I have live weather that says I will get thunderstorms and then I have a few clouds here and there but clear skis. Any help is appreciated, I have a screen shot but cant figure out how to add it. Thanks in advance you guys have always been great. Shayne.
July 20, 20214 yr HI Shayne I haven't seen anything special there. Where exactly do you see the green stuff ? To post a screenshot you first have to upload it to a site like Flickr or Imgur and then put the prescribed link in your post.

July 20, 20214 yr The green/brown ground color comes from Bing maps. Pull up the location on Bing maps and zoom in a bit at a time until the ground color changes. The area around El Paso does the same thing. It is very striking in the sim. Hook Larry Hookins Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of EarthAnd danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
July 21, 20214 yr Yep, limited by Bing data, simple as that. Lake Natron in Africa should be a beautiful lake to fly around but it also suffers from this; half of it is just a brown blur.

There is no way around it unfortunately, until (or if ever) the satellite imagery is updated on Bing. They don't like it updating automatically anyway, as it can destroy some of the water masks that they have to edit manually, even around the lakes. Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

Out of interest I took a shot of the same area, this time from Google Map
